Re: Need bash help to Hobbit client

Mike,

I didn't find in the script the declarations of the "$BB" and 
"$BBDISPLAY". If the shell doesn't know it, the line will be interpreted 
as " <at>  < $MSGTMPFILE >$LOGFETCHCFG.tmp", which means execute application " <at> ".

Are these variables exported before executing this shell script?

Osvaldo.

Re: Multiple IP addresses with NET_FILE_A LTERNATE possible?

Looks great.  I'll have to look at this more closely at a more 
reasonable hour. . .3:40am now.  Would be nice to use http as a read 
only source. . .

TechFan is me.  :-P  Yes, I try to avoid posting using real info in any
newsgroup / listserv  You are welcome to ask about me in direct email if
you have questions.  

No, no, I'm perfectly ok with you being "TechFan". You contribute a lot, I just tried to make a point of several IDs being... less obvious. Ranbir's request was to have <real name> <mail address> in the changelog, and I thought it wasn't that easy/needed.

Keep on being the lonely ranger solving the nasty problems around here

Trying to catch up here. . .was gone for 3 weeks and just now digging

Problem getting xvkbd working

Hi all,

I have just started trying to make a thinstation image that works from a 
compact flash based ide drive for my progear web pad ( http://progear.org/ ).

I have got as far as getting the mutouch touchscreen driver working - I 
created a package that changes the /etc/init.d/x script to add in the 
reference to it and to add a bit onto the XF86Config-Xorg.tpl file.
The package is available here 
http://imcfarla.homelinux.net/thinstation/xorg6-mutouch.tar.gz

I have also created a package for xvkbd - an on screen keyboard that sends 
events using the XTEST extension 
(http://imcfarla.homelinux.net/thinstation/xvkbd.tar.gz).  However the 
application does not work as expected.  xev gets the virtual keypresses but 
the xterm app doesn't.  Does anyone know of any reason why the xterm wouldn't 
work?

Regards,

Iain

Re: Multiple IP addresses with NET_FILE_A LTERNATE possible?

Quoting TechFan <lists.sf.net@...>:

Works fine as advertised.

I have also submitted the patches to Miles (via a Feature Request

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1548460&group_id=80408&atid=559681),
so will hopefully make 2.2.1 as part of the 
base.

Trevor B
PS. In the patches I use param baseurl (rather than wgetconf).
